General Anaesthesia & Deep Sedation

Ordinary conscious sedation, where the patient stays awake and responsive, does not count here. This is informational and does not affect the transparency score.

Score Breakdown
Every criterion below is scored from public sources. ✓ verified yes · ✗ verified no / not found · ◐ partial · ? unverified (scores 0, not a negative finding).
Information Transparency
Whether basic facts about the clinic - its team, premises, services, and location - are publicly verifiable.
| ✓ | Has a working website [s1] | 4/4 |
| ✓ | Dentist names listed Corrected by the verifier. The clinic publishes a team section with an individual page per clinician: Samuel Eriksson (dentist and managing director), Erika Casteryd (dentist and deputy clinic manager), Sara Palomaa (dentist) and Roxanna Emami (dentist). The research pass checked the English homepage and the about page - the about page genuinely carries no roster, and the one name-shaped match on it ("David Deutsch") was correctly traced to a JavaScript library credit - but the team section itself was not reached. [s4] [s5] [s2] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Dentist specializations listed Each clinician page states a role and training: Samuel Eriksson, dentist and managing director, opened the practice in 2012 and lists a dentoalveolar surgery course for general dentists at Umeå University; Erika Casteryd, dentist and deputy clinic manager, trained at Karolinska Institutet; Sara Palomaa qualified at Umeå in 2016; Roxanna Emami qualified at Universidad Europea de Valencia and treats in Spanish, Persian and Italian. [s4] [s5] | 2/2 |

Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.

Reputation & Reviews
Public review signals. The Google rating is adjusted with a Bayesian prior (rating 4.0, weight 25) so a 5.0 from a handful of reviews does not outrank a 4.8 from hundreds.
| ◐ | Google rating (Bayesian-adjusted) Confirmed on the live place page 2026-09-08. Star histogram: 47 five-star, 0 four-star, 1 three-star, 1 two-star, 1 one-star; the buckets sum to 50, exactly the header count, and the weighted mean 4.820 reproduces the published 4.8. [gmapv] [gmpb] | 5/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume Read from the place-page header 2026-09-08 - the count the worklist asked for. The star histogram sums to the same figure. [gmpb] | 1.5/3 |
| ✓ | Review recency The newest visible review is 2 months old. Sample: the 8 reviews the place page's Reviews tab renders in Google's own Most-relevant order; the Newest sort does not open to the extension. [gmpb] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clinic responds to reviews The owner has replied to 2 of the 8 visible reviews. Same relevance-ordered sample. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints No negative review surfaced in the visible sample and the histogram's negative mass is 2 of 50 = 4.0 per cent. Same relevance-ordered sample. [gmpb] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns Dates spread across several years, varied reviewers, no burst. Same relevance-ordered sample. [gmpb] | 2/2 |

| ? | CBCT (3D imaging) | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Implantology [s1] | 2/2 |
| ? | Orthodontics | 0/2 |

| ✓ | Pediatric dentistry The price page states that children can be registered with the clinic from the age of two and that care is free up to and including the year the patient turns 19; the Google listing carries the paediatric-dentist category. [s3] [gmapv] | 1.5/1.5 |

|---|---|
| 2026-09-08 | Browser reputation pass (I-3): live Google place page opened; the missing review count recorded as 50 with the full histogram, recency, owner replies, complaint reading, manipulation check and owner photos completed. |
| 2026-09-07 | Verification pass (D-sweden): the clinic's full procedure-code price list was found and read, filling all seven price fields, and the team section was found, turning the named-dentist and specialization negatives into verified positives with four dentists added to the clinician list; on-site radiography, surgical care and children's dentistry from the age of two documented from the clinic's own channel; rating 4.8 read from the live Google place preview. |
| 2026-09-07 | Initial data collection: clinic English homepage and about-us page plus a live non-browser Google Maps search-preview fetch. A name-shaped text match ("David Deutsch") was traced to a third-party JS library credit and correctly excluded from dentistNamesListed. Reputation fields left null pending a browser place-page visit. |
